I, like many others, have a broken glove box assembly. I've seen the posts that say all you have to do is carefully cut the small $3 receiver piece. Once I cut that, what parts do I need to replace? I went to the dealer and told the parts guy what I was going to do. He looked in the parts list and didn't see any small $3 part for the glovebox. The only part he did see, which he showed me, was a package containing the exterior handle and the entire opening mechanism. My question is, is this $40 pack of parts all I need to fix this, or do I also need to find the receiver part separately? It seemed that if I bought this kit, it would have the locking mechanism too, while the posts I've seen say you don't have to replace the key cylinder. Anyone whose been through this and knows everything I should do, please help. Thanks.
